got an email from S/C today. i'll bet y'all got one too....

i know some who been looking forward to that big time

Yes....Shipping in Summer 2010..............
No, seriously....Jurgen is a perfectionist, and I can't wait to get this.
Thanks so much S|C......
It's Beginning to look alot like CHristmas.............everywhere you go.......( Dean Martin )

they say 64 bit in the flyer. where is it, then?

Quote from the flyer.......Compatible with Windows XP, Vista and
Windows 7 (32 and 62 Bit) Where are my 2 bits?

damn, I can't believe you spotted that before I did...
I was sure I read that 4 or 5 times prior to my post above...

This is big news!!

I dont have an XCITE or a laptop but this is another completed task that puts them further ahead and opens up the possibility of increased sales (which hopefully means more plugin development )

Ive gotta say that Im liking Sonicore and what they have achieved in just over a year (I dont remember Creamware having this many developments in such a short space of time!):

1. New, powerful, hardware
2. Re-written Scope to:
Work with the new XCITE
Make legacy cards compatible with current Windows OS's (providing another 10 + years of use!!)
3. VSTIM (not something I currently use but could be handy for certain projects) - Yeah this is just a renamed version of XTC but the recent development suggests they are giving DAW integration more attention and treating it with a bit more seriousness as opposed to it being an afterthought (which is what XTC always came across as-to me anyway )
4. New Modular (Mod IV)
5. Created a Laptop interface

I think thats quite an achievement for what cant be more than a 10 person company!?!?!

Along with continuing bug fixing / optimisations I think their priority has to be with 64bit and Mac OS compatibility - only then will world domination be possible

My drunken 3 cents

woohoo!!!

So how do we get it?
Does they just ship when ready?

Can't wait to shake their hand at NAMM.

This is HUGE news! Thanks for informing Garyb, i did not receive any email from S|C.

Add me to the list.
And remember I owe you a beer.

I will definitely be hitting you up myself for one.

great!

hadn't heard of this before!

Great news indeed.
But to be a truly mobile warrior for outdoor inspirational moments, i.e. camping under Half Dome or El Capitan, a USB powered controller, a laptop w/ spare batteries, and the XITE-1 w/ the portable power pack rechargable via lighter in the truck is crucial. The wireless warrioirs of the future will need one of these. Good for 2 hours of full tilt 110 power.
Swap the batteries while recharging the spare in the truck.......Sweet..

Heh...I already have an inverter in my RV, but I doubt it could handle the Xite and a laptop.

Greg

THe laptop uses it's Lithiums and the XITE-1 has the pack.
Then the spares are charged while jamming on.
But I also have to consider the boys. I just don't see them sitting around the campfire singing Kuhm Biy Yah MY Lord....
It's DJ Hero, Daft Punk, etc.
It's cool when your kids love music that I can relate to. They always like rapping certain dool lines form a particular rap song, but they do like music...
It's going to be a great summer in Tahoe and Yosemite, screw Las Vegas.
I prefer watching global warming with a clear sky......

you can always bring one of those bicycle-powered generators and jam while you cycle.

Greg

hmm, yes. even in 2022 you can power Scope before going off to get some Soylent Yellow or Green...

So, has anyone scoped out (pun intended) any W7-ready laptops (with the proper chipset) to run Xite?

I guess I'm in the market soon.

Sonica?
Alienware?
